As we got our baby, there was not that much space in our flat. so we decided to use space as efficient as possible. Most baby changing tables don’t use space above and also don’t give protection to baby to fall down on flanks.

The so called baby station is built in the main with IVAR components. For flanks and backs of baby table, I used thin boards and for table a 19mm board, with side boards mounted.

When you make your baby happy with new swaddling bands during night, I made a dimmable, indirect light (switch is mounted with tape). Also material you use for baby care can be stored in small racks on the side (Bekvam).

To have everything additionally at hand, I made a drawer out of boards with a 50cm drawer runner which is very handy.

A rail (BYGEL) is also mounted on top drawer to hang out some stinky clothing

Great hack Jules. I liked it because it’s compact and it has utilized the space available in the best way. It’s looking beautiful as well as compact at the same time. Hope to learn some more acks in the coming days at IKEA.

i would have added a safety bar that you can swing up or over to ensure that if you have to leave your infant on the changing table (phone call, small electrical fire etc) you don’t have to worry about it falling off.

very impressive and excellent creation,every mom will be jealous with you but in my opinion you must choose baby care products such that are best for kids,no harmful chemicals involve in them and sophisticated enough.
